Chapter 548: You’re Scared

The enhancement of the secret technique was still there, and Dakota’s flying speed was still extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already flown hundreds of meters.

However, no matter how fast he flew, he was not faster than the lightning.

Crackle!

A bolt of lightning that was even more dazzling than the Divine Punishment he had used just now suddenly descended from the dark clouds that had already become active in the sky and accurately struck the fleeing Dakota.

Of course, this lightning bolt only looked stronger than the light of the divine punishment on the surface, but its power was far inferior.

However, even so, when it landed on Dakota, it forced him to set up a barrier with part of the spatial energy he controlled to block this attack, forcing his flying speed to slow down.

Crackle!

Then, another bolt of lightning landed.

Dakota could not dodge at all. He could only forcefully endure the lightning and continue to fly into the distance.

However, the lightning continuously fell at a speed that went against common sense, as if a small thunderstorm had instantly formed in this sky. The dense lightning kept the sky the brightest, causing Dakota’s figure to be extremely clear and impossible to dodge.

Dakota felt that the Internal Breath in his body was consumed extremely quickly. In just a short while, it actually made him feel like he was exhausted.

He knew very well that in order to kill Chu Nan with his last strike, he had activated the huge consumption of the Divine Punishment again. Coupled with the secret technique, the consumption of his Internal Breath had greatly increased, causing his Internal Breath to be almost exhausted.

According to the current situation, it would not be long before his Internal Breath was completely exhausted. At that time, there was not even a possibility of escaping.

Dakota hesitated for a moment. His high-speed body suddenly turned and flew down diagonally. Soon, he landed on the ground and stood still, looking up at the sky.

Chu Nan, who was hiding in the dark clouds in the sky, frowned and stopped attacking.

Although he could still strike the lightning to the ground from the sky with his ability, the dark cloud was too far away from the ground. If he wanted to accurately control spatial energy from such a distance, his accuracy would definitely be much lower than the two of them flying in the sky just now.

If he continued to use lightning attacks, the consumption of his Internal Breath would be even greater, and the effect would be much worse. It was very not worth it.

Dakota had clearly seen this. That was why he gave up on flying and landed.

His actions were actually obvious. He had already given up on the thought of directly escaping and planned to fight Chu Nan on the ground.

Chu Nan hesitated for a moment.

Under the current circumstances, it was naturally easy for him to leave. It was impossible for Dakota to have any ability to stop him. Even he wanted to escape.

However, he had finally forced this guy into this situation. Could he let go of this great opportunity and escape first?

Chu Nan actually knew very well that it was the safest choice for him to find a way out first.

In the end, he was not even 20 years old yet. His future prospects were much wider than the basically fixed Dakota in his forties or fifties.

As long as he was given enough time, it would not be strange for him to surpass Dakota in the future and even become a powerful Heaven Control Martial Artist.

There was no need for him to take any risks here. He only needed to escape and leave.

Moreover, he had already delayed Dakota for a long time. Even if the current Dakota returned, it was impossible for him to become an effective combat strength. The danger of the Holy Mountain could be said to have been resolved and there was no need for Chu Nan to risk his life.

However…

No matter how many thoughts spun in his mind and how many gains and losses he weighed, Chu Nan still stared at Dakota who was standing on the ground below and was unwilling to let go.

Could he really leave just like that?

He had spent a lot of effort and thought of so many ways. He had used all his methods to finally force Dakota to this point. If he let him go so easily now, it would always be a pity when he recalled it in the future.

Most importantly, as a martial artist who was always pursuing stronger, if he chose to retreat in the face of such an enemy, what qualifications did he have to face an even more terrifying challenge in the future?

Countless thoughts surged and intertwined in Chu Nan’s mind before turning into a simple sentence.

If he wanted to fight, so be it!

Who cared about risk and gain?!

Chu Nan took a deep breath and threw away the various chaotic thoughts in his mind. He relaxed his body and broke through the dark cloud. He fell at a high speed from the dark cloud and smashed less than a hundred meters in front of Dakota like a meteor.

Bang!

Chu Nan’s falling body smashed a huge pit in the ground, causing Dakota to frown and focus on the place he landed.

A moment later, Chu Nan slowly walked out of the dust that filled the sky and focused his gaze on Dakota.

Their gazes collided fiercely. Dakota could not help but grunt and sneer.

“What? Kid, do you think you can steadily defeat me now?”

Chu Nan smiled and shook his head.

“No, I’m not 100% sure, but if I don’t try under such circumstances, it’ll probably be difficult to encounter such a good opportunity to kill you next time.”

“You want to kill me?” Dakota laughed loudly, “Kid, although I admit that I underestimated you too much and you surprised me too much, causing me to suffer a little, you’re really too arrogant if you think you can really kill me! I’m a fourth-stage Void Break Martial Artist, but what about you? You’re only an initial-stage Void Break Martial Artist who has just broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate. If you want to kill me who is three levels higher, you’re simply an idiot…”

“You’re afraid.” Chu Nan indifferently interrupted Dakota.

Dakota was stunned, then furious.

“Why would I be afraid? I’ve already broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate before you were born, but you’ve only broken through not long ago. Why would I be afraid of you? What a joke!”

“Oh? Then can it be said that you haven’t improved much in these nearly 20 years? No wonder such a useless guy is only worthy of being Sand Eagle’s subordinate.”

Dakota’s expression darkened.

“Kid, don’t think that you’re really stronger than me just because you can make me suffer a little. If you really force me to be serious, you’ll still die.”

“Ha, you speak as if you weren’t serious just now.” Chu Nan smiled bluntly and mocked, “You’re clearly guilty. Otherwise, why waste so much time talking to me?”
